I began researching my family in 1952 while a college student. After being graduated I found no time to pursue the interest generated by my father. Upon retirement in 1991, I started gathering information for an informative volume for my children and grandchildren. My research ultimately led me to "FIND A GRAVE." In September 2013, after about eight years, I completed that volume, although I am currently planning a revised and expanded edition which would include eleven generations. My interest in being a "FIND A GRAVE" contributor is, as fellow researcher, D. G. Bender, put it, "to honor our ancestors who toiled so relentlessly in building these great lands we now call HOME."

RE: Carl L. FietsamI'm not sure what you hope to learn from Concordia Cemetery. Carl is buried in Williamson county as evidenced by the photo of his grave marker there. The memorial in Cook county is an incorrect duplicate. Allowing it to remain only increases the possibility that researchers will consider it valid.
